Túnez aprueba proyecto solar de 500 MW
Mar 08, 2022
The Tunisian government has approved several solar projects with a combined capacity of 500 MW and a total investment of 1.2 billion Tanzanian dinars (407.9 million/€374.9 million).
In 2019, the projects were awarded to a consortium of Norwegian renewable energy producer Scatec ASA, France's Engie and Moroccan energy company Nareva, as well as AMEA power LLC and TBEA Xinjiang New Energy Co., Ltd. part of the country's franchise system.
El gobierno dijo en su sitio web la semana pasada que las nuevas plantas de energía solar estarán ubicadas en Kairouan (100 MW), Tataouin (200 MW), Tozeur (50 MW), la provincia de Sidi Bouzid (50 MW) y la provincia de Gafsa (100 MW) . El nuevo proyecto ayudará a Túnez a reducir las importaciones de gas natural en un 6 por ciento y reducirá los costos en 130 millones de dinares tanzanos.
The North African country needs to add about 3.8GW of green power capacity to increase its share of renewables to 30 percent by 2030. (1.0 Guilder = 0.339/€0.312)
